Question: Design a primary anaerobic digester using data. Input data: Population: 6 7 , 0 0 0 inhabitants Average influent flow: Q = 9 , 8

Design a primary anaerobic digester using data.
Input data:
Population: 67,000 inhabitants
Average influent flow: Q=9,820m3d
Influent SS load: 3,720kgd
Influent SS concentration: SS=379mgL
SS removal efficiency in the primary clarifier: 60%(assumed
Mixed sludge load to digester: 3,307kgTSd
Influent sludge flow: Q=64.2m3d
VS/TS ratio =0.77
Requirements:
(a) Digester volume
(b) Hydraulic detention time
(c) Primary digester effluent sludge (influent sludge to secondary digester)
(d) Heat balance in digester
